DraftKings Price: $4,700
Another Bengal? There will be three when all is said and done. What can I say? The Colts' defense is horrid.
Unlike Dalton, Marvin Lewis could prove to be a problem with Joe Mixon's fantasy output this week. Against the Steelers in Week 7, he compiled 48 yards on seven touches in the first half. Then, well....Lewis decided to not let him rush the ball again. Joe was not happy.
Joe Mixon on not having a carry after first 3 drives produced 2 TDs and ran 7 for 48. Not shy to share his opinion. pic.twitter.com/aUcHFgklSJ

The matchup this week couldn't be much better. The Colts have given up over 30 DraftKings points per game to the running back position, second only to the San Francisco 49ers.
The game script couldn't be better either, as the Bengals have an implied total of 25.75 and are 10.5 point favorites, which means that Mixon -- in a magical world where Marvin Lewis lets his best players play -- should see a ton of work to close out the game. Of course, this is Lewis, so Mixon is a tournament play only.
